Alexander Skarsgard: ‘When I’m Bored, I Have The Sex’

Probably because of this post (I’m an inspiration.), Alexander Skarsgard appears in the latest issue of Out where he talks about Swedish winters turning the entire country into precision fucking machines. I’ll ready the mop buckets:

Skarsgård: Also, I think part of the reason why there are so many musicians coming out of Sweden is you’re encouraged to play an instrument, or to sing and be creative, from a very early age, and it’s free. It’s a combination of a good school system and the long, dark winters. Because that means people sit in their garages and play music for five months because it’s too cold and dark to be outside.Åkerlund: That’s the boning season. [Laughter] And then it’s spring, and that’s also boning season. And summer’s the best boning season.Skarsgård: And that’s also why we’re so liberal and so cool with our sexuality — because we fuck a lot [laughter].Åkerlund: How much time can you spend playing the drums?Skarsgård: When you’re bored, just have sex.

I love how Alexander Skarsgard says, “when you’re bored, just have sex.” Because it’s literally that easy to him. “Welp, got a half hour to kill. Barista! Bathroom. Bring nutmeg.”
